even worse.. Jan 22 2009 Executive Order >

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, in order to effect the appropriate disposition of individuals currently detained by the Department of Defense at the Guantánamo Bay Naval Base (Guantánamo) and promptly to close detention facilities at Guantánamo, consistent with the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States and the interests of justice

He ignores laws of the Congress and His Own Executive Orders !!
BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr Obama’s act of “closing” Guantanamo Bay was hailed around the world as a courageous break with the evil Bush administration. “We are full of hope that the world is on the path to reason and peace,” said President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela.

Except, of course, the prison has not closed...............

Obama’s defenders argue that the executive order was an important act of symbolism, necessary to “turn the page” on the Bush administration, and that it is Neanderthal Republicans on Capitol Hill who threw a spanner into the works by blocking the transfer of prisoners to American soil.

The problem with that is that it was the Democratic-controlled Congress that passed the bipartisan budget agreement that withheld money “to construct or modify a facility within the United States to house detainees transferred from the Guantanamo detention facility" or "to transfer, release or assist in the transfer or release of Guantanamo detainees to or within the United States".
